PRESS STATEMENT
CALL MINISTER OF TRANSPORTATION TO ORDER, M30 TELLS APC NATIONAL
The attention of M30, a grassroots mobilization organization of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has been drawn to a meeting held at the Abuja residence of Hon. Minister of Transportation, Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi on Monday 9th of April, 2018.
The meeting so resolved with the Minister instructing and directing that:
1. The LGA party chairmen should go back and remove any member of the LGA executive that is not part of the Free Rivers Development Initiative. He further directed that any ward chairman or member of the ward executive that is not part of the Free Rivers Development Initiative should equally be removed from the list of the executive at the ward level.
2. Thereafter, the D-G of NIMASA, Dr. Dakuku Adol Peterside took fifteen Chairmen of the party to an undisclosed location where he informed them that the he had released the sum of N5 million to each of them through Hon. Emma Chinda, Former Commissioner of Agriculture for the implementation of the instruction of Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi, Minister of Transportation.
We are aware that Hon. Chinda only released the sum of N250, 000 to each of the fifteen party chairmen, promising to release the balance of N4.750 million in Port Harcourt.
We are therefore calling on the national leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) to call the Hon. Minister of Transportation. Rt. Hon. Chibuike Amaechi to order to stop exerting corrupting influences on party executives at all levels of the party in Rivers State. The Minister should also be called to order not to act as a clog in the wheel of internal democracy which is cherished and respected in the All Progressives Congress.
In the same vein, we call on party officers at the state, LGA and ward levels not to entertain any fear but to be steadfast in the ideals of the party as we are determined to canvass for internal democracy in the party.
Signed:
Hon. Sir Anosike Joseph Orduwa
President-General, M30 Worldwide
